This week I'm visiting Vivian Vande Velde's clever little book, Tales From the Brothers Grimm and the Sisters Weird. The poem I'm sharing is "And Now A Word From Our Sponsor." I'm not a teacher, but even I can't help but think it would be a fun idea to use fairy tales to get inspired to write poetry in the classroom setting. Roundup is at A Wrung Sponge.
And Now A Word From Our Sponsor
Rapunzel, Rapunzel
let down your hair.
See it shine; see it bounce.
No split ends.
Strong enough to climb up:
For the right price,
you, too, can have hair like this.
